JEON SOMI(전소미) - 'CLOSER' M/V

Here are my thoughts on it:

1. The MV: I liked it. Exactly the vibe given of in the teasers. This dark, gray aesthetic suits her more than I thought!

2. The song: Okay, this is a mixed bag. I'll start with the things I didn't like.

- The delay from the prechorus to the chorus. Around 0:56 to 0:58. I honestly wish that never existed. I expected "Call me a BEAUUUUUUUU-" but instead there was a delay. It feels underwhelming.

- The length. Again, the pandemic of short songs in K-pop is still in full swing, with Closer being another addition at 2:40. That's longer than SOME releases this year though (looking at you JYP) but it doesn't HAVE A BRIDGE!!! WE NEED MORE BRIDGES IN K-POP!!

The things I liked about the song:

- Visuals. This is obviously a given. You can't deny Somi's visuals.

- The instrumental!!!! This is SO GOOD, especially in the chorus. And the built-up tension in the verses and prechoruses would have made the chorus sound that much better, IF IT WASN'T FOR THE DELAY!!! But starting from the second chorus to the end, I have no problems with it.

- Vocals. Again, obviously a given but I'm not sure how she'll sing this live because of the modified voice in the chorus. Status: anticipating.

But I feel like I have to talk about the instrumental again. As one YouTube user said, I thought Somi had found her sound when Extra was released but EDM suits her too good!!!!!!

Initially, I gave the song (not the MV) a 7.5/10 after the first listen but as of the second it's somewhere between 8 and 8.5 and will almost definitely rise higher.

Overall, I recommend this song!

Side question: KidzSearch, why won't you allow me to post the M/V? It says "Video unavailable."

Extras- Movie filming!

Our school has been picked to be the set for a new Disney show! I'm not sure if it's a series or movie. However, students in my school can be picked to be extras*. If I get picked, what are some tips when I show up on the first day of filming?

*extras are the people that appear in the background of a movie/TV series.
